NUTP: Close schools only if cases are high


PETALING JAYA: Schools should only fully close if the number of Covid-19 cases within the school fraternity starts climbing.

National Union of the Teaching Profession (NUTP) secretary-general Harry Tan said: “This is to ensure education can go on uninterrupted for the other students, providing that those who tested positive are quickly isolated and quarantined.”
